Julien,

As a contract manufacturer, we use the IPC J-STD-001 Training for our
soldering personnel as well as the IPC-A-610 Training.

In rework, we use the standard for 7721/7711, but do not have anyone
certified under IPC.  The reason for this choice:  We do not do very
much 'rework' - sometimes a jumper or fixing the edge of a damaged PCB.

However, we do hand soldering as a normal part of our manufacturing -
this is where the J-STD-001 training is valuable. And - to make sure it
is all correct when done, our people also get IPC-A-610 training.

I am the registered instructor on site for both IPC-A-610 and J-STD-001
and we have found it cost effective to work this way.  We have 40 people
on the manufacturing floor - 10 are used for hand soldering and we made
it a rule, they must pass J-STD-001 for soldering. We also have
approximately 25 people that have the IPC-610 training.  We also have
offered the training to some of our customers as part of our Engineering
Services.
I looked at the 7721/7711, but could not justify the costs involved at
this time.

Hope this help you,

Tom Parkinson
